Popular Post Celsius Posted April 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2023 That's how it looks like every day when I look outside of my Bangkok condo. Personally I am done. Wife got her Permanent Residency and we are moving back. What idiot would want to stay here and breathe this crap every single day? Just for fun checked the AQI at Phuket today - 132. Truly livin' the dream. 4 1 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no reason for us to go as we have a very comfortable life here especially with my wife's job that she will never get in her new country. I just think health is more important than money. But that's just me. Anyway, why don't you give the reading from your neck of the woods? 2 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nearest AQI sensors are a couple of miles away in either direction so it's not always clear exactly what the AQI reading is at our house. But we run two air purifiers 24x7 so I know what the readings are inside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaiyaTH Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Except for a few days, no issue with pollution down south and enjoying beaches daily. You would have the same pollution in any country if it is for a few days a year. To live in Bangkok or Chiang Mai etc is a choice, TH is bigger than that. To move back for this silly, also might bore your miss who ventures for more fun in farangland over time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazes Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Thing that always puzzles me on Asean is why so many people here are reluctant to indicate where they come from and instead refer to "my country" or some such locution. Whereas, if you met someone in a bar they would tell you before your second sip where they come from.... Anybody know why this weird kind of "privacy" exists? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
